How to type a bar over/under a letter in mhchem of LaTeX?
I use usepackage mhchem to write chemical equations in LaTeX, it works fine most of time. Today I encountered a problem, how to type a horizontal bar over (or under) a letter?
After some Googling work, here is my solution, combining the command mathrm and overline/underline. The command \underline (\overline) is placing a bar under (over) a letter, while mathrm is remove the italic style of the letter in the math environment.
E.g. to get an chemical equation as follows:
You can use the code below:
\ce{3 C4A\mathrm{\underline{S}}H12 + 2 C\mathrm{\underline{C}} + 18 H -> C6A$\mathrm{\underline{S}_3}$H32 + 2 C4A\mathrm{\underline{C}}H11}
\label{some label}
You are welcome to share your trick with me, thanks.


Page Parameters
A page parameter is an arbitrary variable used to pass information into a Skuid page. There are different ways to pass in page parameters depending on the context and use case.
Types of page parameters
Including parameters in a URL is a common way to pass and retrieve information between pages in web development. Similarly, parameters can be passed between Skuid pages using:
 1. Query string parameters
 2. URL merge parameters
Query string parameters
The most commonly used way to pass parameters is by including them in a query string, which is a collection of identifiers and key-value pairs preceded by a question mark. For example:
In this example, the query string passed to the server, everything that comes after the?, is a parameter, felines, requesting all records of felines with the value "lion."
Page parameters act the same way in Skuid: they allow additional information to be passed into a Skuid page.
On Skuid on Salesforce, page parameters are added to query strings by model conditions, actions, and render/enable conditions through the Page/URL Parameter option, and, in some components, in the query string property.
When using page parameters in query string parameters, there are two important rules to keep in mind:
 1. The parameters must always come after a question mark (?), which indicates the beginning of a string of one or more URL parameters.
 2. Every subsequent URL parameter must be prepended with an ampersand (&).
As long as query string parameters are used in this format, they are accessible within a Skuid page.
Passing parameters into query strings is different in Lightning Experience. For more information, see Using Page Parameters In Salesforce Lightning.
URL Merge Parameters
Used on Skuid Platform, page parameters are included within URLs through URL merge parameters. For example,{myParameter}.
On Skuid Platform, you can use URL merge parameters in model conditions, actions, render/enable conditions through the Page/URL Parameter option. They can also be used while constructing an app, and the pages within the app, by inserting URL merge parameters in the app and/or the page URLs. They can also be used for creating REST model conditions.
Using Page Parameters
Builders can access page parameters with model conditions, actions, render/enable conditions, and through the Page/URL Parameter option on some Skuid features.
Values are accessible through the {{$Param}} global merge variable.
For example, {{$Param.myRouteParameter}}.
They may also be passed to Page Includes by setting the component's Query String property to point to this global merge variable.
Using the Go to URL action with URL merge parameters
When creating a link with URL merge parameters in Skuid Platform, the process is similar to that outlined in Build an app navigation bar using the Go to URL action.
The key difference is that you point the URL to a URL merge parameter. This merge parameter could be a context-dependent merge variable or a global merge variable.
For example, the marketing/orders path has a table listing each order, displaying some general information about each order. That table could have a row action that redirects to the following URL:
This redirect URL sends end users to a new route (/marketing/orderdetails), just like the redirect URLs from the Build an app navigation bar using the Go to URL action topic mentioned above. The key difference is the added URL merge parameter, {Id}, which references the model's Id field. This means the context will be determined by the row the end user clicks, passing in that row's Id value when clicked.
So, if the user clicks an order that has an Id of AuXun109274009, Skuid sends the user to the detail page with the row item's Id in the URL parameter: /marketing/orderdetails/AuXun109274009
The final step is setting a condition on the detail page that looks for the URL merge parameter:
 1. Click the Models tab in the App Elements pane.
 2. Click the Orders model.
 3. Add a new condition for the Id field.
 4. Set the Value as follows:
 - Content: Page/URL parameter value
 - Value: Id
 5. Set its condition state to Always On.
With this condition set, this model always looks for the URL parameter named Id for the matching record Id.
Page parameter examples:
 1. In this example, no parameters are provided.
 2.{accountId}: In this example, when a user visits this URL, Skuid pulls the "accountId" from the requested record and passes it to the URL. If the record's accountId was AuXun109274009, the URL the user would see is
 3.{accountId?}: The addition of the? makes the parameter accountId optional, so if there wasn't a value for accountId, the user would be directed to /accounts instead of receive a Page Not Found error.
Unless a parameter is marked optional with?, end users will see a Page Not Found error if they navigate to that page without the parameter in the URL.
Using Page Parameters In Salesforce Lightning
When working in Lightning experience, builders will often use record Ids to create corresponding record detail pages. The Skuid Page Lightning component can determine the record Id based on the way Lightning structures URLs.
However, if you want to pass in other parameters besides an Id, they must be namespaced and added via query string parameters.
For example, adding the default namespace prefix to the parameter accountId creates c__accountId. Non-namespaced parameters are removed from the URL on page load.
It's important to remember that, when namespacing URL parameters in Lightning, any reference made to them in a condition, action, etc, on a Skuid page is also namespaced.
If moving pages from Salesforce Classic to Lightning, you'll need to update the page parameters and any conditions, actions, etc with the namespace prefix in order to maintain functionality.

Getting started with MRZ Scanner using Blink ID
With the advancement in technology, various processes keep on being digitized. For example, we can obtain a traveler's information from national identity card or passport in the airports without having to key in every information.
With a scan on the MRZ section of the passport or national identity card, we can obtain information such as the traveler's name, nationality, age, document number, and even an image.
Introduction
This tutorial will build a simple Flutter application with BlinkId SDK to obtain user data from either a national ID or passport. With one quick scan, we will be able to extract information from identity cards, passports, driver licenses and virtually any other government-issued ID.
Table of contents
Prerequisites
In order to follow along, the reader will need the following:
 1. Have Flutter SDK installed on your computer.
 2. Background knowledge of Flutter.
 3. A BlinkId account.
Application setup
 1. On the command line, create a new directory to store our project files by executing the command below.
mkdir mrz
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
 1. Change the working directory to the directory created above and execute the following command to create a new Flutter project.
cd mrz
flutter create --org com.mrzapp mrzapp
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
 1. Once the project is created, open the project in your favourite IDE. In the root project directory, locate the pubspec.yaml file, and add the following dependencies in the dependency section.
 blinkid_flutter: ^5.13.0
 change_app_package_name: any
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
 - blinkid_flutter is the package that we will use to scan the MRZ section of the passport and national identity card to obtain the user data.
 - change_app_package_name is a package that we will use to change the package name of the application.
 1. In the lib directory, add the following code snippet in the main.dart file.
class MRZApp extends StatelessWidget {
 const MRZApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
 @override
 Widget build(BuildContext context) {
 return MaterialApp(
 title: 'Flutter MRZ Scanner',
 theme: ThemeData(
 primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
 ),
 home: const ScanID(),
 );
 }
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
MRZ scanning
 1. In the lib directory, create a new file named scan_screen.dart and add the following code snippet.
 2. In the class created above, create a stateful Flutter widget named ScanID and add the following code snippet.
class ScanID extends StatefulWidget {
 const ScanID({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
 @override
 _ScanIDState createState() => _ScanIDState();
}
class _ScanIDState extends State<ScanID> {
 String? _resultString = "";
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
 - In the code snippet above, we created a stateful widget, and in its state class, we have a string _resultString that will store the scanned data.
 1. In the _ScanIDState class, create a scan() method that will scan the MRZ section of the passport and national identity card. Update the scan() method with the following code snippet.
 Future<void> scan() async {
 String license;
 // Set the license key depending on the target platform you are building for.
 if (Theme.of(context).platform == TargetPlatform.iOS) {
 license =
 "";
 } else if (Theme.of(context).platform == TargetPlatform.android) {
 license =
 "";
 } else {
 license =
 "";
 }
 var idRecognizer = BlinkIdCombinedRecognizer();
 idRecognizer.returnFullDocumentImage = true;
 idRecognizer.returnFaceImage = true;
 BlinkIdOverlaySettings settings = BlinkIdOverlaySettings();
 var results = await MicroblinkScanner.scanWithCamera(
 RecognizerCollection([idRecognizer]), settings, license);
 if (!mounted) return;
 // When the scan is cancelled, the result is null therefore we return to the the main screen.
 if (results.isEmpty) return;
 //When the result is not null, we check if it is a passport then obtain the details using the 'getPassportDetails' method and display them in the UI. If the document type is a national id, we get the details using the 'getIdDetails' method and display them in the UI.
 for (var result in results) {
 if (result is BlinkIdCombinedRecognizerResult) {
 if (result.mrzResult?.documentType == MrtdDocumentType.Passport) {
 _resultString = getPassportResultString(result);
 } else {
 _resultString = getIdResultString(result);
 }
 setState(() {
 _resultString = _resultString;
 _fullDocumentFrontImageBase64 = result.fullDocumentFrontImage ?? "";
 _faceImageBase64 = result.faceImage ?? "";
 });
 return;
 }
 }
 }
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
 - In the code snippet above, we check the platform and provision the correct license key.
 - We then check if the camera is mounted, and if it is not, we return to the main screen. If the camera is mounted, we scan the document and obtain the result.
Replace the empty string with your license key, that you have obtained from BlinkId.
 1. Until this point, we can scan a passport and a national ID using our application but cannot obtain the scan results. To obtain the scan results, we need to create methods named buildDriverLicenceResult, getIdResultString and getPassportResultString that will return the scan results in a string format. Then, add the following functions to the _ScanIDState class to get the scan results.
//This method is used to obtain the specific user details from the national id from the scan result object.
 String getIdResultString(BlinkIdCombinedRecognizerResult result) {
 // The information below will be otained from the natioal id if they are available.
 // In the case a field is not found, then it is skipped. For example, some national ids do not have the profession field.
 return buildResult(result.firstName, "First name") +
 buildResult(result.lastName, "Last name") +
 buildResult(result.fullName, "Full name") +
 buildResult(result.localizedName, "Localized name") +
 buildResult(result.additionalNameInformation, "Additional name info") +
 buildResult(result.address, "Address") +
 buildResult(
 result.additionalAddressInformation, "Additional address info") +
 buildResult(result.documentNumber, "Document number") +
 buildResult(
 result.documentAdditionalNumber, "Additional document number") +
 buildResult(result.sex, "Sex") +
 buildResult(result.issuingAuthority, "Issuing authority") +
 buildResult(result.nationality, "Nationality") +
 buildDateResult(result.dateOfBirth, "Date of birth") +
 buildIntResult(result.age, "Age") +
 buildDateResult(result.dateOfIssue, "Date of issue") +
 buildDateResult(result.dateOfExpiry, "Date of expiry") +
 buildResult(result.dateOfExpiryPermanent.toString(),
 "Date of expiry permanent") +
 buildResult(result.maritalStatus, "Martial status") +
 buildResult(result.personalIdNumber, "Personal Id Number") +
 buildResult(result.profession, "Profession") +
 buildResult(result.race, "Race") +
 buildResult(result.religion, "Religion") +
 buildResult(result.residentialStatus, "Residential Status") +
 buildDriverLicenceResult(result.driverLicenseDetailedInfo);
 }
 String buildResult(String? result, String propertyName) {
 if (result == null || result.isEmpty) {
 return "";
 }
 return propertyName + ": " + result + "\n";
 }
 //This function creates a complete date based on the date obtained from the scanned document. For example, date of the document issue.
 String buildDateResult(Date? result, String propertyName) {
 if (result == null || result.year == 0) {
 return "";
 }
 return buildResult(
 "${result.day}.${result.month}.$

Vaping Relavant
 - Proper Tips for Vaping Outside During the Winter
 Proper Tips for Vaping Outside During the Winter
 If you're new to vaping, you probably aren't familiar with the struggle vapers face during the winter months. In addition to having to brave the cold every so often to enjoy your vape, the drop in temperature also complicates the mechanics of your device. Below are some helpful tips for vaping this winter.
 Winter Vaping Outdoors Tip #1: Keep Your E-Liquid at Room Temperature
 While stepping outside for a quick vape won't ruin your e-juice, prolonged exposure to the cold could cause the liquid to thicken. Avoid this by limiting the device's time in the cold or by keeping it warm in your hand. Otherwise you run the risk of not only thickening your liquid, but also damaging your coil.
 Winter Vaping Outdoors Tip #2: Protect Your Equipment from Moisture
 Remember that your vape is an electronic device and that, like all electronics, it doesn't mix well with moisture. By simply moving from the warm interior of your home to the freezing cold outside, condensation can form on the most sensitive parts of your vape. Take the necessary precautions by packing it in a protective carrying case to keep the moisture away.
 Winter Vaping Outdoors Tip #3: Limit Your Devices Exposure to Freezing Temperatures
 In addition to damaging your hardware, freezing temperatures can also do a number on your device's battery life. When batteries are exposed to the cold, it can cause lithium inside to create plating over the electrodes, thereby causing your device's battery to overheat or charge at a slower rate. If you absolutely must vape outside in the cold this winter, allow your device to acclimate to the warmth of your home before charging it.
 Final Winter Vaping Outdoors Tip: Avoid the Metal Drip Tip
 If you're a fan of metal tips, you may want to consider a nice plastic tip this winter. It could spare you from a rather painful realization. When freezing metal comes in contact with something warm and wet, it will very likely stick to it. The same principle applies when your mouth touches a metal tip of a vape. If you're not into plastic drip tips, you can always spring for one of the wooden or glass variety.
 Of course, you could always choose to vape inside your home to avoid exposing your device (and yourself) to the bitter cold.
 - What Makes A Cheap Vaping Coil Well...Cheap?
 What Makes A Cheap Vaping Coil Well...Cheap
 Vaping, atomizing, and electronic cigarettes are a relatively new yet revolutionary concept in self-medication practice. The benefits to vaping and using these products are expertly verified and quite varied as well. Within these various tools of the trade however lie crucial components, necessary to the act of mechanical vaping – our most beloved activity.
 Importance of the Coil
 Perhaps the most important of all of these components is the coil. This central part of the vaping mechanism is single-handedly responsible for the device's changeover of liquid to gas, and the subsequent presence of a usable vapor. This is true regardless of the coil class - MOD coils, portable vaporizer coils, or e-cig coils.
 Because of their crucial role to the entirety of the vaping experience, coils have thus become a matter of elevated interest. Particularly, there has been much more curiosity as to how these coils differ at different quality levels as well as how they function in the first place. To make it all easier to understand, let's break it down to the basics. The following may come as a bit of a science lesson to some, but we'll keep it brief, explaining the function of the coil as well as providing some basic insights into electricity itself.
 How It Works
 First, some basics about electricity will really help one to understand their coil and its quality. Electricity flows very well through particular metals. In other metals however, it struggles to flow as well and thus encounters what is referred to as "resistance". Resistance can be terrible in some applications. Here though, the concept of resistance is actually necessary.
 This is where the coil comes in. The coil acts as this aforementioned, metallic path of travel for the electricity generated by the device's battery. The electricity naturally wants to flow across the body of this part whenever the battery sends power to it. However, due to its finely crafted, intentionally resistant composition, the electricity must struggle to run through it.
 The result here is a controlled and focused heat point – a super-heated and very focused point on the coil in which this reaction takes place. Subsequently, the vaporizer's liquid solution is pulled across this finely focused heat source. This then creates the inhalable vapor ultimately sought.
 The Effect of Coil Quality
 As in all manufactured wares, costs are a big governor over quality in product when it comes to vaping coils. Regardless of the type of vaporizing mechanism, the core innerworkings of the coil are much the same. Variations in quality however change everything.
 How exactly does quality differ between coils? In most cases, cost-control dictates the type of metals and casting processes used in the creation of a coil. Overall quality in design is also touched by the consideration.
 In a low quality coil, the company has likely saved money on the mass production of its coil via the use of cheaper metals, manufacturing processes, and designs. The result is a coil that does not employ the optimal metal compositions or design for the optimal electrical resistance and resulting vaporization. Perhaps then the coil dies quicker because the metal couldn't withstand the constant and demanding electron travels across it. Maybe the coil only works intermittently, a sign of troubled travel of electricity through the cheaply-made design. Regardless of the symptom, coil quality greatly dictates effective and reliable vaporization in addition to actual occurrences of bad symptoms.
 These are the basics of the concept of the coil as well as the effects of quality on these crucial parts. Cheap coils will typically produce equivalent results while quality ones will do the same. To the benefit of the patron though, the wide variety in available choices here is always a plus.
 Whether you run a dripper or a tank, a regulated variable voltage/variable wattage device is a valuable addition to every vaper's arsenal. These devices give users the ability to adjust the wattage in order to tailor the heat and vapor output of the unit to their preference. Additionally, regulated devices eliminate voltage drop which plagues mechanical units.
 The Chain Reaction is a 50 Watt 26650 regulated device made by Amigo Itsuwa which features a durable yet sleek design. The attractive styling boasts a durable carbon fiber battery tube cover which compliments the stainless steel components and protects the copper battery tube and red bronze contacts. The OLED display is easy to read, and the software is intuitive.
 The device operates in the manner that all experienced vapers have come to expect: utilizing a power button which doubles as an on/off switch and two buttons for wattage adjustment from 7 to 50 Watts. The buttons offer satisfying tactile feedback and are of durable proven design. Disassembly of the unit is achieved by first unscrewing the bottom cap and removing the battery. The carbon fiber covered copper tube can then be unscrewed from the rest of the device, although this would be unnecessary for any purpose other than deep cleaning of the unit.
 Although the device will fire as low as 0.3 Ohms, the sweet spot for this device is between 0.5 and 0.8 Ohms for RDA's and will handle any sub Ohm tank currently on the market utilizing coils in the correct range. The Chain Reaction features an overload protection circuit and will also measure the resistance of the build placed on the sturdy non-adjustable 510 connection preventing any shorts or undue stress to the battery. The sensible range, combined with the 26650 battery, provides an all-day vape which will satisfy even the most habitual vaper's.
 The 26650 powered regulated devices offer the experienced vaper a sensible go-to device which will meet the needs of these advanced users. In the hands of an experienced user, these devices are safe and reliable when compared to the outdated technology previously available. As always, battery safety should be of paramount concern to any ambassador of the vape community in order to project a positive image of our hobby.

 Key Differences Between Internal and External Battery MODs
 MODs have become all the rage and are used by millions of vapers as the next level in the world of vaping. These devices are available in different brands and they use different types of batteries. A MOD is the modification of the device that allows increased or decreased vapor production, battery life, and voltage usage. The main drive of battery operated MODs are to provide heat to the liquid solution, which comprises of vegetable & propylene glycol and nicotine. These devices are offered with diverse battery types and functions.
 Types of Internal and External Batteries
 The primary differences between internal and external batteries are internal batteries are built into devices and external batteries are removable. Internal battery type, lithium polymer, also know also known as LiPo is permanently installed in a MOD and isn't removable. The device must be thrown away when its natural life usage has expired. To recharge the battery, the vaper is advised to use a computer's USB port that provides additional safety features compared to a wall socket.
 External battery MODs are replaceable and available in Lithium IMR or Lithium Manganese (Li-Mn), IMR/Hybrid, and ICR Lithium Ion (Li-Ion). Lithium IMR is considered the safest

A Labor Government will provide at least $11 million from the $200 million Urban Rivers and Catchments Program to support key projects across South-East Queensland.
Of that amount, $3 million will support the work of Ipswich City Council for flood recovery and resilience projects along the Bremer River and its tributaries.
This project will improve water quality, riparian corridor conditions, streambank stability, and enhance the terrestrial and aquatic habitat conditions of the river and its surrounding catchments.
It will also increase resilience of the catchment to flood impacts, access to natural areas and waterways and provide educational opportunities for schools and groups.
Labor's previously announced $200 million urban rivers and catchments investment will fund projects across the country to restore urban river systems, catchments, and wetlands.
Fixing up waterways and the catchment areas around them will improve water quality, will help improve habitat for animals, and deliver positive outcomes for nature and communities.
Only a Labor Government will restore Australia's urban rivers and catchments.

UAE students film female teacher during class, post videos on Internet
Female students of a government school in Ras Al Khaimah filmed their female teacher during the class and posted the video on the Internet.
The management of the school seized a smartphone and an iPod from the students for filming and posting the videos on Snapchat, Arabic daily Al Khaleej reported on Monday.
The school management conducted a search operation among students and seized devices after a teacher filed a complaint that a couple of students had filmed her during the class and was forwarding the clip to other students.
The campaign led to seizure of a smartphone and an iPod, which contained videos of teachers and students while the class was on.
The teacher filed a police complaint against the students. A police officer visited the school and gave a lecture about internet crimes and the dangers of misusing smartphones.

The pronounciation suggests that the sentence is about a mango in general (lEmango), not the specific mango (which would be lAmango, wouldn't it?).
I did. I finally figured out that instead of spamming in comments, it's better to just report.
It used to be a problem because the suggested translation was "The mango has a good smell". Now they have apparently fixed it, and it is about a general mango, as the translation suggests.
You could say המנגו מריח טוב = the mango smells good. but המנגו יש ריח טוב is not a correct sentence. The ל implies the ownership in the way the verb "to have" is constructed in Hebrew. Translated literally this sentence is "there is good smell to the mango". the ל incorporated the "to the".
With the definite article, shouldn't it be "la-mango"? I'm hearing "le-mango."
It isn't necessarily the definite article here. You could say le-mango and this sentence can mean "(any) mango has good smell.
The only issue with the translation is that when translating verbatim from H to any western language, an interpretation is required to have the sentence make sense. "For the mango there's a nice smell" simply reads what we all know: Mangoes smell nice...
Why "a" article is needed for "good smell"?? Why "mango has good smell" is incorrect?
Are you asking regarding the translation of this sentence, or in English generally?
You need the article "a" in front of mango in English. Here's an article explaining it: _URL_
That depends on whether you are using "mango" as a countable noun or as a mass noun. If mangoes smell good in general and that is the message you are trying to convey, then it's fine to treat it as a mass noun and forego the indefinite article. In fact, saying "a mango smells good" indicates that there is somewhere in the world a mango that smells good. That is not what you're trying to say.
The article you linked gives a similar example: Fruit is on sale.
So, if "Mango smells good" is an acceptable translation, why is "A mango smells good" rejected?
Reyakh. Though sometimes pronounced re-akh (native speakers swallow the y sound).
The other way around, I think: It's always /re-akh/, and /re-yach/ is an anomaly that's fading away. It's the pronunication of Israelies who immigrated from Poland and Russia up until the 30's, their most luminary example (for pronunication jokes) being Shimon Peres. Also you find it in songs from the 50's through mid-70's, because singers were taught to add it on the grounds that hyatus is not nice. _URL_ (/ya yareyach/: יא ירח, addressing the moon).
Hebrew isn't as strict about word order as English. Both variants are acceptable.
That said, what is this sentence about? Mangos. The mango is the subject. So it makes sense to put the mango first, and the word that modifies the mango (יש) afterwards. But feel free to phrase it in any of these ways for the desired emphasis:
למנגו יש ריח טוב
יש למנגו ריח טוב
ריח טוב יש למנגו
But don't say the following. It makes you sound like Yoda:
ריח טוב למנגו יש

Lake Medlow Dam
Lake Medlow Dam
Located about 110 kilometres west of Sydney, Lake Medlow Dam is on Adams Creek, between Katoomba and Blackheath.
Believed to be one of the thinnest dam walls in the world (only 106 centimetres wide at the top), the dam is located between Katoomba and Blackheath. It was the first of the dams built as part of the development of the upper Blue Mountains.
Today it still supplies water to the middle and upper Blue Mountains. The dam is not open to the public.
Height: 20 m
Length: 38 metres
Total storage capacity: 326 ML
Lake: 5 ha
Catchment: 5 square kilometres
Lake Medlow Dam history
Originally known as Adams Creek Dam, Lake Medlow Dam was built in 1907 on Adams Creek. It was the first of the water supply dams built as part of the development of the Upper Blue Mountains.
It was the first concrete thin arch, high stress dam built in NSW. Only 274 centimetres wide at the bottom and 106 centimetres at the top, it is one of the thinnest dams in the world and created considerable controversy when it was completed.
The Institution of Engineers, Australia placed a historic engineering marker on the dam in 1994. The National Trust and Blue Mountains City Council have registered the dam on their heritage list.
The completion of Lake Medlow Dam was a significant step in providing a reliable water supply for Medlow Bath, Blackheath and surrounding areas. Today, the dam supplies water via the Cascade dams to the Cascade water filtration plant, which provides water to the middle and upper Blue Mountains.

Photoacoustic temperature measurement is a new type of thermometric technology with noninvasive, real-time, high precision and space resolution. For improving the measurement accuracy and reliability, the method of using a multiwavelength photoacoustic signal to monitor the temperature named as multiwavelength photoacoustic temperature measurement was proposed in this paper. Based on the basic photoacoustic effect theory, the theoretical feasibility of this method was analyzed. And the experimental results from the phantom and ex-vivo tissue samples indicate that the multiwavelength photoacoustic temperature measurement can effectively reduce the error to smaller than 0.1 °C, and increase the accuracy of temperature measurement by more than two times. Our study demonstrated that the multiwavelength photoacoustic temperature measurement can potentially be a valuable method for temperature measurement during photothermal therapy or other clinic applications.

Accessory Dwelling Units
Guide to Developing Accessory Dwelling Units
An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), also known by other terms such as a laneway house, granny flat, or mother in law unit, is a separate housing unit on the same lot as a typical single family house. It can be either attached or detached from the main house. It could be rented out to a tenant, or it could be provided for free to the homeowner's friends or family.
ADUs are self-contained dwellings. That means an ADU should provide space for cooking, sleeping, and using the bathroom.
ADUs have a long history in Bremerton. They were a popular form of housing since the days of World War 2, when Bremerton's population boomed and housing was desperately needed. However, because many of those historical ADUs were small and built cheaply and quickly, they were not often considered in a positive light. Most people can imagine the benefit of having an ADU on their property, whether for housing their loved ones who can no longer live independently, or gaining additional income from rent. However, in recent decades the Zoning Code limited ADU construction, and many property owners that wanted to accommodate an ADU on their property were blocked from doing so.
In December of 2020, the City of Bremerton took a huge step forward and made it easier than ever to establish an ADU (Ordinance No. 5410). This page will help you to determine whether an ADU is feasible for your property, and inform you of the City's requirements for ADUs. Below is a table showing some quick standards for ADU construction. Click here for a helpful guidebook that will walk you through developing an ADU. If you have any questions, please contact the Department of Community Development at or _PHONE_.
What is an ADU? An additional, accessory dwelling unit on a lot with an existing principal unit added to or created for use as a complete, independent or semi-independent living unit with provisions for cooking, eating, sanitation and sleeping.
What areas of the City are ADUs permitted? An ADU may be permitted anywhere a new or existing single-family dwelling unit is allowed. ADUs are exempt from the density requirements of the underlying zone.
What is the maximum size of an ADU (square footage)? An ADU is limited to one thousand (1,000) square feet or not more than sixty (60) percent of the principal unit's total habitable floor area, whichever is greater.
 - If the primary residence is greater than 1667 square feet, an ADU can be 60% of its size.
 - If the primary residence is 1667 square feet or less, an ADU can be up to 1000 square feet.
How many ADUs can a property have? Each property can have a one (1) single family home and two (2) ADUs, for a maximum total of three (3) dwelling units. These ADUs can be either detached or attached to the single family home.
Must the owner live on site? No, owner occupancy is not required.
Is parking required for an ADU? The first ADU is not required to provide an additional off-street parking space. The site must comply with Chapter 20.48 BMC - that means the two (2) paved parking spaces for the single family home must be provided. A 2nd ADU must provide an additional paved parking space, for a total of three (3) spaces.
What are the required yards (setbacks & development coverage)? In the R-10 zone, the minimum front and rear yard setbacks are 15 feet, and the side yard setbacks are 5 feet. Contact a Planner to determine your zone.
An ADU must comply with the development standards of the underlying zone for the principal unit including setbacks, height, and lot coverage. However:
 - An ADU can be placed directly on the rear property line, if it abuts an alley.
 - An ADU can be as close as 3 feet from the side property lines, as long as the wall closest to the property line is built according to fire separation standards.
What are the design standards for ADUs? ADUs must preserve the appearance of the main house as a single-family dwelling,and the design of an ADU should blend into the existing house or the neighborhood. That means no duplex-like designs, and nothing that sticks out like a sore thumb. Try to design an ADU so that the materials used complement the design of the main house.


interval solution and an optimal $$$k + 2$$$ interval solution. Then make a bipartite graph out of the intervals, where edges are drawn between intervals that intersect. Here is an example for $$$k=7$$$ (the black bars symbolizes the intervals of the two solutions)
The bipartite graph then becomes
Bipartite graph
The reason for picking $$$k$$$ and $$$k + 2$$$ is because I want to create a $$$k + 1$$$ configuration from this that is at least as good as the mean of $$$g(k)$$$ and $$$g(k + 2)$$$. The method I apply is based on analysis of alternating paths in the bipartite graph, in particular what happens if you "flip" a path (meaning you exchange intervals between the two solutions). For example flipping the 3rd path from the left will result in
The 3rd path from the left has been flipped
The following is a proof of the existence of a $$$k + 1$$$ interval solution that contains at least as many $$$1$$$s as the mean of the optimal $$$k$$$ solution and the optimal $$$k + 2$$$ solution.
Formal proof
So conclusion from this is that $$$g(k + 1) \ge \frac{g(k) + g(k + 2)}{2}$$$, i.e. $$$g$$$ is concave.

 Awesome! This kind of proof resembles the proof of convexity for Monge dynamic programming. This also has an additional nice property of being constructive.
 For the proofs using less brain, it seems the problem can be reduced into negative cycle canceling. Construct an edge $$$i \rightarrow i + 1$$$ with cost 0, and $$$j \le i$$$ with cost $$$-sum[i, j)$$$ for $$$i < j \le i + L$$$. Since negative cycle canceling is dual to the augmenting path, it should have the same convex property.
 In the contest, I thought the problem had an MCMF modeling. But after the contest, what I had in mind turned out to be wrong, and this is the best I could get afterwards.

 You are right, there are 6 possibilities. But they do not have the same probability.
 After first selection, both x = 1 and x = 2 have probability of 1/2. If he selected x = 2, then we have only 1 selection for y, so selection (x = 2, y = 1) also has probability of 1/2. Finally, each of (2, 1, 1) and (2, 1, 2) would be 1/4.
 In case of x = 1, both y and z have two options, so probability for each of (1, 2, 1), (1, 2, 2), (1, 1, 1), (1, 1, 2) is 1/8.
 Then, since the only incorrect choice is (1, 2, 2), whose probability is 1/8, the answer will be 7/8.

Basketball Traveling Rules
Basketball Traveling
What is a Travel?
Traveling is a violation in basketball that occurs when a player takes too many steps without dribbling. The usual rule of thumb is that a player may only take two steps without dribbling; three steps is a travel. However, in reality this rule is much more complicated.
When Does a Travel Occur?
Traveling may occur when a player receives the ball while moving or stationary, or when a player starts dribbling. When a player receives the ball, they must establish a pivot foot.
Pivot Foot
Basketball Pivot Foot
A pivot foot is the foot that must remain in the same spot on the floor. The other foot is allowed to move in any direction any number of times, as long as the pivot foot remains put. If the pivot foot moves or leaves the ground, it will result in a travel.
If a player receives the ball with two feet on the ground, either foot may be used as a pivot foot. If a player receives the ball in the air, whichever foot touches the ground first is the pivot foot. If a player receives the ball in the air and both feet hit the ground at the same time, either foot may be used as the pivot. This is known as a jump stop.
A jump stop counts as one step. A player is allowed to use a pivot after a jump stop unless there was a step before the jump stop.
The pivot foot may move when passing or shooting, but the ball must be released before the pivot foot touches the ground again. A player can also move their pivot foot when dribbling,however, the ball must be released before moving the pivot foot to avoid a traveling violation.
Other Traveling Situations
There are other specific situations in basketball that are traveling violations:
 - If a player in possession of the ball falls to the ground, it is a travel.
 - If a player on the ground, holding the ball, stands up without dribbling, it is considered a travel. However, a player retrieving a loose ball is allowed to slide on the court without being called for a travel.
 - If a player receives the ball while running, they are allowed up to two steps before either stopping, passing, or shooting;if the player wishes to dribble in this scenario, they must release the ball before their second step. Any more than two steps will result in a traveling violation. For example, a player going for a layup is allowed two steps on their way to the basket. If three steps are taken, the player will be called for traveling and the shot will not be counted.
Calling Traveling
basketball referee hand signal traveling
The penalty for a traveling violation is a turnover to the other team. The other team will receive the ball at the out of bounds point that is closest to the spot where the travel occurred. A referee calls a traveling violation while simultaneously signaling the violation with circular arm movements. You may see fans, players and coaches may mimic this motion when they believe their opponent has committed a traveling violation.

Bone Tree (3.5e Environment)
From D&D Wiki
This environment is typically a forest, an evil, skeleton-filled, dangerous forest with flesh craving trees. The wood from these trees is highly sought after by necromancers, death-cults, sentient undead, and others who deal with death on a regular basis. Surprisingly, the tree loses all true-evil connotations once it is cut down and the stump is destroyed; this means that the wood can be used by anyone. See below for bone wood crafts.
 Bone Tree
A bone tree is the result of a seed being infused with necromantic energy either deliberately, as the result of some traumatic event, or from the seed of a greater bone tree. If it is deliberately made the creator must have a hefty supply of bones on hand to feed the tree as it grows. Most non-deliberate bone trees grow in soil that has been drenched in the blood from a massive battle where the bodies were left to rot and the bones eventually became part of the earth.
- Bone Seeds are hefty balls about the size of a coconut that sprout into a bone tree. Lesser bone tree status is achieved within 6 months of sprouting. Greater Bone tree status is achieved in 50 years
- Lesser: Undead within 30' gain a +2 Profane bonus vs turn attempts, corporeal undead gain fast healing 1. Animates anything dead within 50' into a skeleton within 1d4 hours. These effects do not stack no matter how many trees are together.
- Greater: Same as lesser plus the following - anything dead within 30' of the tree is animated as a skeleton in 1d4 rounds. Corporeal Undead within 50' gain a +1 Profane bonus to attack and damage when doing unarmed/natural attacks. Fast healing is increased to 5
Any species of tree can be a bone tree as long as it was affected by one of the processes described above. Some trees have no outward appearance betraying their status (the bones are around the roots or deep within the trunk), most have obvious bits of bone sticking from the bark, the most profane trees seem to be sheathed in a bony coating. Bone trees that grow from the seed of a greater bone tree resemble the original tree but with a malignant, evil twist to the orignal form.
 Bone Tree Skeletons
The first thing a skeleton does when created by a Bone Tree is tear any flesh left on its body and place it around the trees roots as fertilizer. Skeletons created by Bone Trees typically stay within 300' of the tree and retreat to the tree for healing if injured. When not defending the tree from a threat, the skeletons tend to the tree and maintain the grounds around it. Part of this maintenance is that the skeleton brings any fragments of bone it can find to the tree for integration into the tree. The trees skeletons are also responsible for the spread of the bone tree forest and they do this by taking bone seeds out 40 to 60 feet away from the tree for planting. Most trees only maintain a force of 10 to 20 skeletons, more useful skeletons are kept and other skeletons are integrated into the tree.
 Bone Wood Crafts
Some versions of the crepitus crutch are created using wood and bone from bone trees. Crepitus crutches made completely from materials gathered from a bone tree grant their created skeletons a +2 profane bonus versus turn attempts.
It is possible that the profane bone or wood from a Bone Wood Tree is useable in other crafted items. This would be at the DM's discretion.
 The Forest
A bone tree forest is a thing of beauty, the skeletal minions of the trees keep the grounds around their tree in pristine condition. The trees, while not truly intelligent, seem to be aware that a pleasant environment is more likely to attract good-aligned intelligent species. To this end, when the skeletons are not actively working they are directed to hide from sight however possible. They typically hide either in nearby large trees, ready to leap down on unsuspecting victims, or buried in the ground ready to rise up on unsuspecting victims.
You can generally assume that no tree is within 50 feet of each other and calculate how many trees can be in any one forest based on this assumption.


Brisk is one of those delightful words that sounds like what it means: quick, lively, bracing, and refreshing. There's nothing like a brisk walk in the morning to get the blood flowing and the spirit ready for the day.
Anything brisk is happening quickly but not too fast. Probably taken from the French brusque, which also means "quick," but in a more negative way, brisk can be used to describe not only physical actions but also more conceptual notions, such as brisk business around the holidays or brisk interactions at a speed-dating event. The soft-drink called Brisk must be called that for a good reason. Perhaps it picks you up!

An Isolable Anionic Gallabenzene: Synthesis and Characterization Taichi Nakamura Katsunori Suzuki Makoto Yamashita 10.1021/acs.organomet.5b00310.s001 _URL_ An anionic gallabenzene was isolated and structurally characterized for the first time. The structure of gallabenzene in the crystal was isostructural with that of the recently reported anionic aluminabenzene. Structural parameters of the gallabenzene ring such as planar structure and unsaturated bond character without bond alternation were consistent with the structural criteria of the aromaticity. By DFT calculations of the gallabenzene, in addition to the presence of an ambiphilic contribution similar to the aluminum analogue, the plausible difference of the electronic structures between the galla- and aluminabenzenes due to the difference of electronegativity was also suggested. 2015-05-26 00:00:00 aluminabenzene Isolable Anionic Gallabenzene Structural parameters gallabenzene ring DFT calculations bond alternation ambiphilic contribution bond character aluminum analogue

Ion Channel Based Bio-Synthetic Modulator for Diffusive Molecular Communication
Featured Articles
In diffusion-based molecular communication (DMC), a transmitter nanomachine is responsible for signal modulation. Thereby, the transmitter has to be able to control the release of the signaling molecules employed for representing the transmitted information. In nature, an important class of control mechanisms for releasing molecules from cells utilizes ion channels which are pore-forming proteins across the cell membrane. The opening and closing of the ion channels is controlled by a gating parameter. In this paper, an ion channel based modulator for DMC is proposed which controls the rate of molecule release from the transmitter by modulating a gating parameter signal. Exploiting the capabilities of the proposed modulator, an on-off keying modulation technique is introduced and the corresponding average modulated signal, i.e., the average release rate of the molecules from the transmitter, is analyzed. However, since the modulated signal is random in nature, it may deviate from its average. Therefore, the concept of modulator noise is introduced and the statistics of the modulated signal are investigated. Finally, by assuming a simple transparent receiver, the performance of the proposed on-off keying modulation format is studied. The derived analytical expressions for the average modulated signal are confirmed with particle based simulations. Our numerical results reveal that performance estimates of DMC systems obtained based on the assumption of instantaneous molecule release at the transmitter may substantially deviate from the performance achieved with practical modulators.

 - Release on:2016-12-06
Insulating glass manufacturers to improve the quality of the insulating glass, in addition to the advanced equipment of insulating glass to control the process, efficient production, if we ignore the following safeguards to produce qualified insulated glass to get market recognition is out of the question. So in the process of production of hollow glass, 5 control measures strictly.
 (1) reduce production time
 Desiccant minimizing contact with the atmosphere of the time, reducing the adsorption loss and give the desiccant has a high adsorption capacity.
 (2) strictly controlled production environment temperature
 Main influence capacity and residual adsorption capacity of the production environment.
 (3) select the appropriate aluminium insulation
 The pore gas seams should be small, reducing the water absorption of zeolite during the operation.
 (4) select suitable desiccant
 To select the desiccant adsorption rate is relatively high and persistent.
 (5) water through the spread of polymers
 Rely mainly on select sealant of low permeability coefficients, determine a reasonable thickness of seal, reducing the temperature difference between inside and outside of the insulated glass (that is controlled in a certain temperature range temperature range of production and not so great).
 These measures through choice of materials, processing, control of all aspects of the environment, control of insulating glass, the quality will be greatly.
 ProfessionalInsulating glassThe production equipment, strict management, scientific process and quality control measures for the production of insulating glass, is a prerequisite for improving the quality of insulating glass.

wikiHow to Overtake in Karting
Four Parts:Being as smooth as possibleOut-braking your opponentMastering a set of cornersStaying focusedCommunity Q&A
Overtaking in karting is as essential as having the best lap times. Karting is a form of motorsport that can mold you into a better driver and an even better racer.
Part 1
Being as smooth as possible
 1. 1
 Focus on being smooth. This is one point that a lot of racers neglect. Being an aggressive driver may help you gain a few places but will eventually force you to make a mistake and you may lose all the places you took.
 2. 2
 Make your overtake as clean as possible. If you feel that you are overtaking your opponent before entering the corner but are unable to carry out the overtaking move through the exit of the corner then you are probably doing it wrong.
 - This could be because you are either unable to manage a faster exit speed through the corner or you are too aggressive on the steering and the brakes which in turn make you slower through the corner, which helps your opponent to keep pace with you.
 3. 3
 Don't always go for a gap. There could be a possibility that you may have the inside line for a corner but the very next corner could be in the opposite direction and may give your opponent the inside line making your overtaking move useless!
Part 2
Out-braking your opponent
 1. 1
 Be prepared to put in plenty of practice. This method of overtaking does not come easily. It takes practice and a lot of patience.
 2. 2
 Identify a part on the track that helps you find your usual braking point. This is the point that you always brake at before turning into a corner.
 3. 3
 Try braking a little later than your braking point to see how it affects your exit speed. If you exit too slowly because your kart loses a lot of traction, you might want to experiment more with your braking points.
 4. 4
 Observe whether the driver ahead of you brakes at the same time that you do. Note whether that driver brakes a lot earlier than you. You can use this knowledge to your advantage and try to steer away from the racing line brake later than the other driver. This allows you to not only overtake the driver but also to make a comfortable exit through the corner, as you are now able to out brake your opponents.
Part 3
Mastering a set of corners
 1. 1
 Use corners you're familiar with. This is the time you start finding a particular corner or a set of corners that you can take flat-out or in which you save a lot of time while doing timed heats.
 2. 2
 While you have these turns figured out, think about whether the ideal way of overtaking on this corner would be to go on the inside of the opponent or go on the outside of the opponent.
 3. 3
 Think about a few corners in advance. For example: If you are approaching a hard braking corner after a long straight and you believe that you can overtake the driver then think about the next set of corners. This would help you to analyse how you would have to tackle the next set of corners in order to maintain your position.
 4. 4
 Note the opponent's moves. You have to be very attentive about how the opponent takes these corners. Notice whether the driver is struggling or is fairly good through these set of corners. Use the opponent's line through the corner and quickly work out your ideal line to overtake the opponent.
 5. 5
 Don't panic if you are not able to overtake your opponent the first time. You know your strong corners and your opponent will now try to be defensive of his or her space, trying not leave any for you to overtake. Use this behavior to your advantage and push the opponent to make a mistake through a corner; that will be your key to overtaking him or her.
Part 4
Staying focused
 1. 1
 Practice frequently. Karting is an expensive sport, so use your time on the track wisely. When karting, think and experiment with your line, so as to be well prepared when you actually have to use all of your practice to overtake your opponents.
 2. 2
 Stay confident and reduce your fear. In a high paced sport like karting, never let fear get the best of you. If you do, the other driver behind you will not hesitate to drive you off the track!
 3. 3
 Look where you want your kart to go. If you have a gap that you can fit through and overtake, stare into the gap because that's where you want to go.
 - If you stare at the kart in front if you and keep thinking that you will crash, you are bound to crash then!

 5. Right click Sort by Dimension on Rows, then un-check Show Header.
You can now use the Sort By parameter control to select which dimension to sort by.
To view the steps showed in the below video, please expand the above section. Note: the video has no sound.
Additional information
Dimensions on the Rows or Columns shelf are treated hierarchically, so sorting on a dimension will not affect any dimensions left of it on the shelf.
If you want to mix data types or add an 'Ascending or Descending' parameter to the sort, a RANK() can be added to any non-number fields. See the attached "Sorting by ANYTHING" workbook.
Use a calculation similar to the following instead of the calculation in the above instructions:
IF [Ascending/Descending]='Ascending' then 1 else -1 END
*
IF [Sort by]='Category' then -rank(min([Category]))
elseif [Sort by]='Sub-Category' then -rank(min([Sub-Category]))
elseif [Sort by]='Sales' then SUM([Sales])
elseif [Sort by]='Profit' then SUM([Profit])
END
RANK() can be used on any data type to convert it to a number and retain the original order. For 'Descending', the entire calculation can be multiplied by -1.

Fuzzy Generalized Fractal Dimensions Using Inter-Heartbeat Interval Dynamics in ECG Signals for Age Related Discrimination
International Journal of Engineering & Technology
Fractal theory is the propelled technique to analyze the non-linear signals with more complexity. Quantification of chaotic nature and complexity of the multifaceted therapeutic signals requires the estimation of the spectrum of Generalized Fractal Dimensions (GFD) where the complexity means greater inconstancy in the general form of fractal dimension range. This paper has proposed a fuzzy multifractal technique to analyze the age related classifications by using the Fuzzy Generalized Fractal
... neralized Fractal Dimensions (F–GFD) with Gaussian fuzzy valued function through the cardiac inter-beat interval dynamics in electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. It has been revealed that, the designed Fuzzy GFD method accurately categorizes the young and old age subjects by graphical comparison with the typical GFD method. The classification rate of young and elderly subjects has also supported statistically by ANOVA test. Hence the fuzzified multifractal analysis accomplishes significantly to discriminate age groups than the classical multifractal analysis in heartbeat rate time series from ECG signals and also the conventional GFD is a specific case of the proposed F–GFD.


Covelo fire burned 617 acres
Full containment of the Pass Fire located east of Covelo, stubbornly eluded CalFire and the US Forest Service firefighters over the weekend.
Monday afternoon, the 617-acre fire was 97 percent contained. Cost as of 10:30 a.m. Monday was $2.6 million, but fire personnel had been reduced to 277 persons from a peak of 921.
When the fire began August 3at noon, it was attacked heavily from the air, as ground resources surged to the location. Initially, the fire threatened several structures near the Eel River Work Center, but then burned north and east, leaving the structures unharmed. Steep hills in the fire zone were covered with a combination of dry grass and oaks on the western slopes and grass and heavy manzanita on the eastern sides.
Containment was particularly challenging in the area located in the steep canyon slopes above the Eel River.
Fire engines from Little Lake, Ukiah Valley, Redwood Valley, Brooktrails and Laytonville fire departments responded to the mutual-aid call just after the fire started, and remained on the fire lines until Friday afternoon. Local firefighters slept on the ground and ate field rations for much of their time out.
In the early stage, the fire size was estimated at 800 acres, but as overflights mapped the fire boundaries more accurately, the official size was scaled back to 644 acres and finally to 617 acres.
Although the fire began in the state responsibility area, it quickly crossed into lands managed by the US Bureau of Land Management and Mendocino National Forest. The fire response was co-managed by CalFire and the U.S. Forest Service.
One firefighter suffered a wrist injury during the fire.

text: This study investigates the relationship between gender and participation in mathematics and engineering undergraduate degree programmes in Iran. The number of female students enrolling in Iranian Higher Education (HE) is relatively high and this remains the case in mathematics and most engineering programmes. However, the number of female graduates gaining employment in engineering and STEM-[science, technology, engineering and mathematics] related jobs in Iran remains relatively low, with gender discrimination in recruitment practices identified as a key barrier. This presents a contradiction which makes Iran a particularly interesting context to study gender in mathematics and engineering in HE. This study adopts a narrative inquiry approach to investigate how Iranian female students studying mathematics and engineering describe their choice of subject, experience of studying at university, and their future aspirations. It seeks to investigate how the social, cultural and historical structures of Iranian society shape the way these students narrate their identity as a mathematics or engineering student. In-depth analysis highlights how they position their degree as offering more or less âcapitalâ (Bourdieu) which resources their future identities of becoming successful career women in STEM-related professions. In doing so, these women feel able to navigate barriers to success by using their capital to improvise and exert agency over their future trajectories. In sum, I suggest the predominance of âmoving abroadâ as a theme across the interviews is a consequence of the aforementioned contradiction between their desire to become successful career women whilst facing gendered discrimination in the labour market.

Moon Maid (comic)
Moon Maid
Publication information
Publisher Tribune Media Services
Created by Chester Gould
Moon Maid was a major character at one period in the Dick Tracy comic strip, then drawn by its creator, Chester Gould.
Gould, hoping to keep the strip evolving and changing with the times, slowly began changing the focus of the strip from a crime drama into one whose primary focus was science fiction. Tracy had always been equipped with the latest, most up-to-date police equipment, including forensic science, but with the introduction into the strip of eccentric industrialist Diet Smith as Tracy's friend in the 1940s, Tracy began to have the assistance of devices such as the two-way wrist radio, and later the two-way wrist TV.
The logical extension of this in Gould's mind was the introduction of space travel. Smith invented the magnetic-powered Space Coupe. With the use of this vehicle, Tracy and company landed on the moon in 1964, finding there an advanced race of humanoids whose high technology meshed remarkably well with that of Smith's. The Moon race looked like Caucasian humans except for having abnormally large eyes and giraffe-like horns on their foreheads.
 Fictional character biography
Moon Maid was the daughter of the Moon's supreme ruler, a male humanoid who was always identified as "the Governor of the Moon". It is not clear whether he was democratically elected, or some form of hereditary ruler. She served as a liaison between her race and the humans. She and her family became one of the strip's primary focuses for several years.
Moon Maid eventually married Junior, the now-adult adopted son of Dick Tracy. Her father the Governor resented this marriage. Eventually, Moon Maid became pregnant by Junior. Her father was anxious that the child be born on the Moon, so as to be legally a Moon denizen. An extremely contrived plot twist put the pregnant Moon Maid, Junior, Dick Tracy and the Governor all aboard a Space Coupe when Moon Maid gave birth at precisely the midpoint in space between Earth and the Moon.
The child, a girl, was named Honey Tracy and had slightly over-large eyes, and two prominent tufts of hair on her forehead in the position corresponding to Moon Maid's horns; we are never told what lies beneath those tufts. The daughter also demonstrated a magnetic ability to attract small metal objects to her hands; this talent never played an important role in the strip.
During this period, Dick Tracy himself had many adventures on the Moon, notably solving a murder case involving a man named Purdy Fallar who kept two of his fingernails extra-long, claiming they were for harvesting the meat of giant Escargot: a race of gigantic Moon snails, prized on Earth as delicacies. In reality he used his sharpened fingernails as throat-slashing weapons.
When the impending 1969 NASA moon landing threatened to make the preceding Moon stories look silly, Gould chose to return to the material that made the Dick Tracy strip famous—Earth-bound crime. The strip made one oblique reference to the Apollo 11 landing shortly after its completion, with Diet Smith commenting about some "equipment left behind" on the Moon (in a caption above a panel showing the abandoned Lunar Module).
 Later years
After Apollo 11, Moon Maid and Honey continued to remain on Earth, as wife and daughter of Junior; all references to their selenic origin were phased out, with Honey never demonstrating her magnetic talents, and Moon Maid identified solely as "Junior's wife". Both characters continued to appear sporadically, in greatly reduced roles. Soon after Rick Fletcher and Max Collins took over the strip in 1978, Moon Maid was murdered accidentally by a man named Little Littel who was trying to kill Tracy with a car bomb while trying to collect on a million dollar open contract on Tracy's head by elderly crime lord "Big Boy" Caprice. Little would later be killed himself in an explosion when Junior Tracy goes to his shop looking for revenge on his wife's murder.
Although Honey Tracy survived—now apparently retconned to be totally human—it was understood that this moment represented the termination of the strip's Moon years.

The Basics of Utah Conservation Districts - District Supervisors
Conservation District Supervisors
When the residents of a conservation district elect a supervisor, they delegate the responsibility of directing the conservation needs of the district's natural resources to them. Supervisors are leaders, using their own operations and activities to set a good conservation example to others, demonstrating conservation benefits.
Conservation district supervisors have the opportunity to take an active role as stewards - safeguarding limited natural resources. To effectively nurture conservation in their communities, they should understand their role and responsibilities as a supervisor. Their success depends on their vision of the conservation district movement, their knowledge of natural resource conservation and the available means to accomplish conservation district objectives.
Roles of District Supervisors:
- Be aware of the different natural resource needs within the district and actively seek input for solutions.
- Be an example of conservation management by practicing applicable conservation methods.
- Promote the ethic of good resource stewardship among all residents.
- Be familiar with laws, policies and program concepts of importance to the district.
- Manage staff, finances and property of the district (through zone coordinator).
- Regularly attend district meetings and functions, take an active role in overseeing your employees' activities, and generally make conservation district business a priority.
